The things you can do when you get inspired

Or, the third installment about this third take on Ellen Minard's blues mohair.I finished the back of the Fassett blue Toothed Stripe (wow - I ought to give this sweater to someone in I.T., oughtn't I? Except bluetooth seems on it's way out? Oh well.) and started on the front - I can get one set of pattern repeats done in a sitting - so on good weekend days, I can get 2 repeats done, one in the morning and one at night.I usually find that once I put a project down, I'm done forever. I just hate going back to things. How nice to be wrong.Here it is, basking on our back porch in daylight, which does more for the colors. It's more muddy, or glassy somehow when you see it in person. How the heck to they get sweaters to look so great in books and magazines?So, if I stay inspired, I should have this puppy done for the holidays.

About this blog . . .

This blog was created as a space to share ideas and pictures of work. It includes knitting, quilting, spinning, some crochet, dying, more things probably, too. It's sort of an online scrapbook so I won't loose so many ideas. You can also find me on Ravelry .

All these patterns are in pdf format - all are also available on Ravelry. Links below will send an email to me with the pattern you'd like in the subject line. Please write me a note or put in any comments or questions you have about the pattern in the body of the email. Most patterns are for small/medium but if you send me measurements, I'll design to order. I welcome feedback on my pattern writing, and will do everything in my power to send the pattern to you within 24 hours(weekends may take a little longer).
